Then perhaps you should stop bitching about the spam coming through
public mailing lists or learn how to set up procmail if you can't be
bothered to report what you're bitching about to the *RIGHT* place,
which is not this list.

I didn't tell you it couldn't be done.  I told you that the MTA was
postfix and not sendmail as you assumed.  It's not being done because
you are bitching to the wrong people.  The proper place to report spam
on the lists is postmaster@FreeBSD.org, not this list, which is what I
said in my last message.  The point you seem to be missing is that if
you're going to bitch about it, and expect things done about it, direct
it to the right place.
